GroundWater Desktop (GWD) is a 3D User Interface for visualizing and analysis of:

Groundwater models and their results. While GWD is general, and might be used to visualize any model, its development to-date has focused on MODFLOW, MODPATH and MT3D, including the latest unstructured grid capabilities encompassed within MODFLOW-USG.

Environmental data such as water levels and chemistry, well boring and various basemap data types including Rasters, GIS shapefiles, and Images.

GWD provides powerful unique 3D kriging capabilities with an option to do kriging directly on Modflow grid and use of MT3D output as an external drift.

Latest mayor additions include Bioscreen-AT3D and KT3D_H2O.

BIOSCREEN-AT3D is a enhanced 3D version of the EPA screening-level solute transport model BIOSCREEN. BIOSCREEN-AT3D uses an exact analytical solution for transport from a patch boundary condition with time varying concentration developed by Chris Neville from SSPA. The solution considers the following transport processes: advection, dispersion, sorption, and first-order transformation reactions. Enhancements include: use of exact analytical solution, 3D simulations and multiple sources with several types of inflow concentration.

KT3D_H2O is a program for kriging water levels using Hydrologic Drift Terms. Implemented in GWD, KT3D_H2O combines various programs to generate gridded maps of water level elevations with an option to use several drift types, together with approximate particle tracks and capture zones
